The hot search exploded with [Ren Qinming’s Face Turned Blue with Anger]

As soon as Chen Yan heard that surnamed Liu made an appointment at a hotel, he felt it was unreliable.

[Little Fatty Weighs Over 1000jin, and His Face Accounts for 800jin: Didn’t I say it, that gross idiot took a liking to your good looks, and deliberately booked a hotel to take advantage of you]

Ruan Song sent the other the address to the hotel.

[If you have money, I’ll marry you-Song: If I don’t respond to you in 2 hours, then come look for me, 1508]

Right now, he was going up a mountain of knives and going down into a sea of fire1. As long as there was any chance of making money, Ruan Song would go.

Chen Yan saw the other really was in need of money. When he first met Ruan Song, Ruan Song was arrogant. He would even suddenly turn hostile if the other party gave unreasonable suggestions. Now he was so cooperative.

[Little Fatty Weighs Over 1000jin, and His Face Accounts for 800jin: Aunty’s2 condition worsened again?]

[If You Have Money, I’ll Marry You-Song: Three words, demanding immediate action]

[Little Fatty Weighs Over 1000jin, and His Face Accounts for 800jin: I understand, brother. Don’t worry and go. Right now your body is our only way of making money. I pledge to complete the mission, and help you get the money]



“Teacher Ren, if you don’t agree to appear on our new interview-style variety show, there’s still plenty of other types of variety shows you can join, but will you really not honor me with your presence and toast with me?” The platform film producer respectfully held his wine glass with two hands, proposing a toast with utmost respect.

The table was filled with seven or eight other people, and each person’s face was smiling. Ren Qinming pondered, and felt with regards to the atmosphere, it would not be good if he declined the other again.

But the film emperor remained leaning against his chair with no change in his posture, and the one who stood to accept the toast was still his little assistant.

“Teacher Ren isn’t drinking for now. He drank too much yesterday and hasn’t recovered, and he still has activities tomorrow.” In these past few years, the little assistant has said and done everything, and others couldn’t pick out any errors in his half-truths.

After all, the matter of being secretly photographed turned into such a big situation, and the film producer could only nod and wave his hands. But he wanted to flatter the other, and followed up with an attempt to ease the environment at the table: “The paparazzi is also too much. It’s normal for a 26 year old to have a few lovers, but they still have to follow along and photograph you.”

Those sitting nearby also understood the flattery, and followed along: “That’s right, that’s right. So many others have married and had kids in secret, have sex at random, or even engage in homosexuality yet they don’t get photographed. It’s all because our teacher Ren is just too popular.”

The wine glass in the little assistant’s hand hesitated slightly.

The seemingly indifferent Ren Qinming who had been arranging the plates unexpectedly opened his mouth: “What’s wrong with engaging in homosexuality?”

That person looked dazed: “Huh?”

“Now, even same-sex marriage is legal, I thought discrimination ended long ago.” Ren Qinming crossed his arms and stared fixedly at the other.

The others at the table grew shocked.

They still didn’t know if it was a boy or girl kissing film emperor Ren in the breaking photo that was released last night, could the other party really be a man?

Then their flattery directly slapped the horse’s hoof!3

Ren Qinming went one step further and tossed out a finishing blow: “If you want to work together, then at the very least, both parties should have beliefs that match to the greatest extent, or else when it breaks in the media that you inadvertently touched upon such topics and you guys implicate me, it’ll be very annoying for me.”

The entire table: “……”

A big truth that was too inconsiderate of others’ face4.

The platform’s producer simply wanted to cry without tears.

He originally planned to suck up to Ren Qinming, and win over Ren Qinming’s first ever appearance on a variety show. Who would have thought that even before he could send his troops out for battle, the battle hadn’t even started yet when it already ended.

They spent countless hours on homework, yet they unexpectedly lost when it came to ‘same-sex love’!

After he said this, Ren Qinming found the others were all looking at him, but he simply picked up his chopsticks before asking: “You’re all not eating? I remember a whole table of dishes at the Water Pavilion is very expensive, let’s not waste the efforts of the program team.”

Everyone’s heart was mixed: “……Eat, eat, eat!”



Without Chen Yan’s assistance, Ruan Song unhurriedly took an hour-long subway ride to his appointment.

He raised his head and saw the dazzling billboard of the Water Pavilion hotel. He hadn’t yet entered, and was first concerned whether or not he’d be barred from entering because he was dressed too casually.

Fortunately the workers allowed him to enter with jeans, but even though they didn’t stop him, they did stare at him strangely.

Ruan Song initially didn’t understand, and thought there was something on his face. It wasn’t until he knocked on the door of room 1508, and saw the erotic scene in the room, as well as seeing filmmaker Liu barely wearing his bathrobe, did Ruan Song finally realize.

Turns out everyone thought he was a male prostitute that was called on by a guest!

Ruan Song stood outside the door, and maintained minimal courtesy: “How about I enter after you finish putting on your clothes?”



At the rental house, Chen Yan had been watching the time as soon as Ruan Song told him he had entered the Water Pavilion hotel.

After two hours, he punctually sent the other a message.

But the other didn’t respond to WeChat messages, didn’t answer voice messages, and even after Chen Yan called the other, the other’s phone was even shut off.

At that point, Chen Yan felt something was wrong.

The man who usually doesn’t leave the house and squats at home to write scripts, immediately left the house twice in a day.

He even luxuriously took a taxi!

When Chen Yan arrived at the entrance of the hotel with his pajama outfit, the sky was already completely black. He hadn’t even thought to enter the hotel, and hadn’t even reached the front desk, when he was blocked at his very first step.

“May I ask if you have a reservation?” A hotel worker wearing white gloves who had originally appeared indifferent stepped in front of the other and asked.

A few passersby wearing suits and leather shoes looked over at Chen Yan one after another, wondering why someone wearing sweats and a white t-shirt would appear here.

Chen Yan knew he looked incompatible with his surroundings, but now, he urgently had to save his brother’s life: “This is a hotel, not some kind of clubhouse, how could you regulate those who don’t have a VIP reservation? Can’t I just go in and have a meal?”

If he directly said he was looking for someone at this kind of hotel, the front desk wouldn’t even give him the time of day.

The worker remained strict and impartial: “Even eating here requires a dress code, sir.”

Chen Yan was anxious, but he also didn’t hear from Ruan Song that he was barred from entering.

Just as he was at his wits’ end, his small but focused eyes caught someone leaving the restaurant wearing sweats, and raised his hand to point at the other: “That person! That person isn’t dressed formally! On what basis can he enter, but I can’t? You think I have no money and can’t afford to eat?”

Everyone turned and followed the direction of his pointed finger.

Ren Qinming wearing a cap and black sunglasses: “……What?”

The workers: “…………”

Chen Yan really couldn’t handle their dawdling, so with candor, he directly announced the surnamed Liu’s room number: “My friend was called over by your guest, Liu Dezhong, in room 1508 to discuss something, but he hasn’t responded to my WeChat messages, hasn’t picked up his phone, and his phone is even turned off! If my friend has encountered some unexpected misfortune, can your hotel afford the responsibility!”

Wow, a melon!

At this point, the passersby couldn’t be moved, and each one of them stopped walking to watch the show.

Only Ren Qinming remained completely indifferent, lowered his head, and walked forward.

But in the next second, the worker asked: “What’s your friend’s name? The receptionist has to confirm the records of those who entered.”

Chen Yan was panting with rage: “Ruan Song, the ‘Song’ in carol5.”

The assistant and Ren Qinming’s steps simultaneously stilled, and Ren Qinming looked back: “Who?”

Chen Yan was full of confidence: “Liu Dezhong in 1508!”

Ren Qinming: “……I meant your friend.”

Chen Yan was on the alert: “Why? You know my Song?”

The assistant and Ren Qinming looked at each other.

The assistant immediately walked to the receptionist at the front desk to say that Chen Yan was their friend, and brought the other towards the elevator.

The platform’s film producer who was still waiting to see Ren Qinming out: “???”

At this point, the workers, passersby, and even Chen Yan grew dazed.

Right now, two people were standing in front of him, one tall and one short. The shorter person was wearing a casual suit.

The taller one had broad shoulders and long legs. Although Chen Yan said the other was wearing the same style of sweats, but with the other’s body, even if Chen Yan’s entire outfit had ‘rich’ written all over it, he still wouldn’t look as good as the other.

For a moment, Chen Yan couldn’t tell if he really ate melons until he was obsessed, but this handsome brother unexpectedly looked familiar: “……You guys know Song ah?”

That man’s hands were stuffed into his pockets, stared at the continuously fluctuating floor numbers of the elevator, and didn’t answer. Instead, he asked: “Liu Dezhong in 1508?”

Chen Yan adjusted his usual chubby persona: “I asked you, do you know Song?”

The handsome brother still ignored him: “What relationship do you have with Ruan Song?”

Chen Yan thought in his heart he definitely wouldn’t answer the other, but once he saw that pair of imposing black sunglasses, his mouth moved on its own: “……just roommates, good friends.”

The handsome brother sized him up.

Chen Yan couldn’t help but add: “We’re really good friends! I swear, pure brothers!”

Ren Qinming snorted at once: “I know.”

Chen Yan couldn’t tell why the other laughed, and paused for a moment to consider.

Fuck, could this person be looking down on his looks? Thinking he was concerned about being misunderstood as being a couple with Song?

At that time, Chen Yan felt some nameless anger, and wanted to say this person acted like a dog, and didn’t know to be courteous when meeting someone for the first time.

But without waiting for him to say anything, the elevator arrived first.

The moment the elevator dinged, Chen Yan decided he would be generous, and decided not to lower himself to the other’s level.

But when finding the room, this man also fought to be first. His 1.8 meter long legs walked forward vigorously, and could be seen to be even more anxious than Chen Yan.

Chen Yan even prepared for the long process of recording a video, knocking down the door, and fighting the inhabitants.

Who would have thought the door to 1508 wasn’t even closed, and everything was weakly hidden from the three people’s eyes.

Behind them were a line of workers, and the platform’s film producer and his team had also followed along in another elevator.

The door was pushed open, and the first thing that entered their eyes was a belt and bathrobe that was left behind in the foyer. Then along the way, they saw scattered slippers and hotel products, and it was hard not to see the traces of a fight left behind.

Everyone was startled.

Chen Yan saw a big lump under the white hotel bed sheets, and his head blanked in an instant……could it be that he was too late?!

Ren Qinming could no longer restrain his slowly growing anger, and without saying a word, he tore open the blanket.

The assistant also held up a large jacket in preparation of covering Ruan Song’s body, but in the end, they couldn’t find a second body, instead only finding the bare butt of a middle-aged man kneeling inside.

That middle-aged man grew dazed after seeing so many people suddenly appearing in his room. His face was clean, but his body was bare and quickly growing purple. One hand even held an open condom, as well as lube.

Ren Qinming also didn’t want to listen to the explanation, and first threw a punch at the other’s face: “You touched Ruan Song?”

The man felt so pained that he didn’t know whether to cover his face first, or his butt: “I didn’t get to touch anything!”

Ren Qinming: “So you wanted to touch him.”

Fine, in just two words, his lawsuit was decided.

Ren Qinming had no time for nonsense, pulled aside the blanket and tossed the person to the ground, ready to hammer away, his strength so explosive the hotel workers couldn’t even stop him.

That man with the surname Liu had nothing on, and embarrassedly grabbed onto the blanket to cover himself up. He also had to dodge to the left and right in order to avoid Ren Qinming’s fist, and felt so aggrieved he was about to go crazy: “Who the fuck are you! On what basis can you hit me! Didn’t you already hit me!”

Chen Yan was still in a daze, and hadn’t even had time to react to what ‘you already hit me’ meant, when the phone in his pocket rang.

Ruan Song on the other side of the line replied: “I thought my phone could hold on for a bit longer, but it turned off on its own so I couldn’t pick up your call. I’m on my way home now, where are you? It can’t be that you went to the hotel to find that man surnamed Liu to start a fight? I already beat him up.”

“You already beat him and then went home, huh.” Chen Yan blankly stared at the chaotic scene in front of him, “I……Right now I really am at the hotel, but I’m not fighting with that man surnamed Liu, I’m watching someone else beat him up???”

Ruan Song: “?”

Ruan Song: “Who else would be beating up that man?”

Chen Yan just wanted to say he didn’t recognize the other, when Ren Qinming easily pulled off his sunglasses in front of everyone, and raised his hand to send out another punch: “Can you see who I am now? Because you want to take advantage of Ruan Song, no punishment is light enough for you! Xiao Lu, call the police.”

The assistant Xiao Lu had already prepared some time ago: “I already called the police, Qinming ge.”

Everyone’s pupils shook: “!!!!!”

Those from the platform’s film producer’s team jaws nearly dropped to the ground, and Chen Yan held his cellphone in his hand while fireworks directly exploded in his head.

In less than two seconds, Weibo also exploded. The hot search was [Ren Qinming’s Face Turned Blue With Anger].
